Watch: ‘The Daily Show’ finds Donald Trump supporters largely fail “extreme vetting” test

Na. You have predators after you & you really need to call the cops.

You also probably arent acting your age , but thats a problem for a different post 😂

neon-genesis-evandoglion

I’m 23 years old. Men old enough to be my father hit on me all the time.

At work a couple months ago, a man in his 50s came up to me and started telling me about how he saw me a few days ago and grossly explaining how fine he thought I was. He didn’t want to fuck off when I told him he was being inappropriate, he instead asked for my number. On another occasion at work, another man around the same age asked me if I need a sugar daddy. When I am at work, I am not acting like I’m in my 50s, I am minding my own business and doing my job.

Just yesterday while I was out jogging, a man in his 30s leaned out of his truck window to yell at me. When I am out jogging or walking, I am not acting like I’m in my 30s, or trying to attract the attention of men in their 30s, I am exercising.

When I was 19, a man in his 40s followed me across a shopping center while I bought art supplies for school between classes. He followed me, caught up to me, and asked me my age, and even upon hearing that I was decades younger than him, and a TEENAGER, he persisted and kept trying to give me his number to make plans with him. I wasn’t acting like I was 40, I was shopping for school supplies.

When I was 16, I was at the laundromat Waiting for my clothes to finish, and a man in his mid 20s/30s came up to me, into my personal space, and started hitting on me. When I told him I was only 16, he just asked me “so when do you turn 18?” And getting frustrated at my obvious discomfort. I was doing laundry, not vying for a grown man’s attention.

One thing all these older men have in common when they start bothering me, is that they start off with “you look kinda young, but…”. We as a society need to stop shifting the blame onto young women and girls. Very many men are predatory and purposely go for girls that are much younger than them for sick reasons. It has nothing to do with “acting your age”. If a 20-something y/o is going after girls in their mid teens, he is a creep and a predator. There’s no way around that. Creepy men need to be held accountable for their fucked up behavior.

“Acting your age”. If you don’t shut up.

its-a-different-world

This is so important

Stop blaming little girls and young woman on Older men’s predatory behavior. STOP.

JFC, just stop.

It’s so creepy. There are older men on social media telling me I’m fine and I’m hot and I have to block them. It’s scary.

if, by some divine mistake, you find the lady of the forest, you can only ask her a single question. pray that it’s one she knows how to answer.

who’s a good girl?

I was asking myself just now why they have “16 and pregnant” but not “16 and impregnated a girl” but I realized it would be pretty boring to watch a 16 year old boy play video games and go to school and live life as normal

Robert E. Lee himself refused to wear his confederate uniform after the confederacy’s defeat in the American civil war. At his funeral he was not buried in it and no one in attendance was permitted to wear theirs either. He also declared that his confederate battle flag (what we now call “the confederate flag”) never be raised again and that it was a flag of treason.

So there’s your “southern heritage.”

girly-friday

Not Just Robert E Lee, which you can read here.

but Also the President of the South, Jefferson Davis felt the same way.

Basically, “Get the fuck over it.” We lost, we’re a part of this country, this flag signifies an old identity. Cut that shit out and move on.

Well the end kind of threw me for a loop but overall this is a quality post.

here is an idea: normalise the idea that adopting kids is a valid option even for parents who could conceive a child themselves, and not just an inferior backup option for parents who can’t

Look at me. Look me in the eye. On November the 8th, 2016, one of two things will happen: Hillary Clinton will become president, or Donald Trump will become president. These are the only two possibilities. The superdelegates aren’t going to switch. An indictment isn’t coming. There is no third possibility. There is no space between the spaces where you can hide. Every vote for Donald Trump requires two Hilary Clinton votes to overcome. A Hillary Clinton vote can only be overcome by two Donald Trump votes. If you stay home, a Donald Trump vote doubles its power. This is the real, actual reality of the situation. There is not one other option.

pelicanhypeman

And there’s no ctrl-alt-del for the election. Read up on 2000 if you doubt this.

clairenovac

And to those of us who supported Bernie, he WANTS you to vote for Hillary. If you believe in him and his mission you will follow his advice. He knows that writing his name in, or voting for anyone else besides Clinton, is effectively voting for Trump.

colethewolf

Refusing to vote for Hillary is a vote for Trump, no matter how much you scream and say how it’s not. And if you’re standing by to do nothing in regards to taking down Trump, then you ARE grouped along with the rest of the people in this country that ruin things for everybody else.

rbnhood

No, seriously, go read about the presidential election in 2000.

bri-ecrit

If you weren’t old enough to remember and/or understand the ramifications of the 2000 election, I WILL TELL YOU.

Do not let Trump win. Please. I beg you. I went to grad school with people who voted for Nader in 2000 and my FB feed is full of them begging others not to make the same mistake they did. Bernie has his priorities straight, and the priority is stopping Trump.

And if that doesn’t do it for you, this is the Republican platform 2016. It calls for:

Conversion therapy for queer kids. Let me repeat that. CONVERSION THERAPY FOR QUEER KIDS. Some members of the RNC even wanted to endorse it more explicitly than they did.

Zealous opposition to same-sex marriage. Here’s the quote: “Our laws and our government’s regulations should recognize marriage as the union of one man and one woman and actively promote married family life as the basis of a stable and prosperous society. For that reason, as explained elsewhere In this platform, we do not accept the Supreme Court’s redefinition of marriage and we urge its reversal, whether through judicial reconsideration or a constitutional amendment returning control over marriage to the States.”

Reversing the Obama administration’s order to grant trans students access to restrooms, locker rooms, etc. The Republicans feel that such things should be based on biological gender, not gender identity.

Treating internet porn as “a public health crisis.” Quote: “Pornography, with his harmful effects, especially on children, has become a public health crisis that is destroying the life of millions. We encourage states to continue to fight this public menace and pledge our commitment to children’s safety and wellbeing[.]”

Gender discrimination. To quote Time magazine: “[T]he platform committee voted against including the word “gender” in a list of types of discrimination that should be opposed. On Tuesday, one member described the attempt to add that word to a list including qualities like race, sex and creed as a “sneak attack.”

Repeal of the Johnson Amendment. The Johnson Amendment currently prevents churches and other tax-exempt organizations from organizing politically, endorsing political candidates, etc. Repealing it would throw separation of church and state out the window…not to mention that it would give evangelical churches and televangelist organizations much more power, driving the country further to the right.

If you vote for Trump, these are some of the planks of the platform you’re voting for.
